Ingredients

  • 1 Ripe Banana
  • 1 Egg beaten
  • 2 tbs Granulated Sugar
  • 1 c Buttermilk
  • 1/2 tsp Vanilla
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
  • 1.5 c All Purpose Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • Pinch of Salt
  • Ghee or Vegetable Oil to coat griddle or skillet for cooking
  • Optional Toppings: Sliced Banana Maple Syrup, A pat of Butter or Whipped Cream

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl mash one ripe banana and combine with egg, sugar, buttermilk, vanilla and cinnamon. 
  • In a separate bowl combine flour, baking powder and salt.
  • Next, add the flour mixture to the wet ingredients and stir to combine. Do not over mix. Allow the batter to rest for five minutes.
  • Preheat your oven to the warming setting to keep the cooked pancakes warm while you cook the rest of the batch. Heat a griddle or skillet over medium heat. 
  • Cook the pancakes in batches. Cook each pancake until the sides begin to set and you see bubbles begin to form on top, flip and cook the other side until set. The second side will not take nearly as long as the first when cooking, only about a minute. 

Notes

Hold cooked pancakes in the oven while you cook the rest of the batch
